Is luck opportunistic?
I don’t know if luck plays an important role in any act of human life or it is just the right time that matters to get things done. Basically I m confused, if luck really exist and if yes, how do u prove it?
Many people say that a person needs to be luck to get certain thing, eg: a particular high paid job or a good car or the best house etc. etc. Is it so that only if you r lucky u can get all that? Can 99% hard work and efforts be less important against that 1% so called luck?
So is luck opportunistic? Is it selfish enough to be with only rich and beautiful people? Does it really knows whom to favour n whom not to. Is it to blame or mental guts play a vital measure to understand if it really helped?
Again, I might be contradicting my own words or may be I might differ from the actual topic. But you know, these r all my wage thoughts. Because I m trying to replace luck with a bit of risk.
Am I correct when I say that Luck is nothing but a bit of Risk?
Because all the rich, famous and beautiful people whom we say to be lucky have taken some or the other risk in life. Probably they have taken the right risk at the right time, as a reason of which they r what they r, if that small amount of risk that they played with had gone the other way they would have not been what they r today. Do I make sense when I say that?
A candidate might get that highly paid dream job by just answering a single question correct, correct means as per expected. It might be a stupid answer but a risky one.
A player playing any game needs to take risk while playing a particular shot. If he misses he is gone but if connected right he is the hero.
All rich n famous people have taken very calculated risk at a particular point of time, which makes them what they r today. Bill gates bloomed his idea from a garage and once when in debts, had offered a supplier 15% of Microsoft shares, guess what? The supplier said I have no interest or confidence in your business, I don’t need your partnership, give me my money. Imagine 15% of Microsoft shares $$$$$$$. Would u call that supplier unlucky? I would say he did no have guts to take a positive risk.
I dont know if i made sense, but i dont believe in Luck. I would say, its a little bit of calculated RISK.
Post your thoughts.
PS: Above article is just a running thought that i scribbed during my way back home. Was thinking about a few planned things in my life and trying to find reason for the best and the lost things that happened. Anyways ......
